Default Best method of recognizing a fellow S driver.

I have seen a few threads about how people recognize other S drivers on the road. What do you think is the best method?

Nothing wrong with it ralper. It just may not be understood in the way it was meant.

The best way is to wave with your hand straight in the air. You do have your top down, right?

I started a thread on this some time ago - we really need a univerasal recignition signal. My vote was for flashing the headlights, followed by the V for VTEC sign. Either one alone could be misconstrued as 'cop ahead' or 'Peace' (I saw your other post, Dario...).

I don't know how many times I've driven past an S going the other way, flashed and given the V (or thimbs up, or something) and gotten no recognition at all.....

Plus, something more distinctive helps when you're not driving the S. I don't drive her except for nice evenings and weekends, so I'm usually in my old '92 Prelude. It would be nice to be able to saw "I've got one of those, too!"

(Voted for Flashing Lights, but I always try to add V if there's time!)
